Fun For All At Lacoste Special Needs Clinic

Over 80 children were treated to an exciting day at the tennis today, as they participated in the Lacoste Special Needs Tennis Clinic. In partnership with Lacoste and the Clark Francis Tennis Academy, the 2 hour clinic served up lessons, lunch, and a visit from player John Peers for children from Al Noor, Dubai Centre for Special Needs, Rashid Pediatric Centre, the Dubai Autism Centre and Manzil School.

The Lacoste Special Needs Clinic is specifically designed to offer a fun tennis experience for children with special needs, and they were delighted to be joined by Australian ATP player Peers, who took to the court to lend a helping hand. Peers shared tennis tips and plenty of high-fives with the children, saying "It's good fun to get out with the kids and see a smile on their faces, they’re great kids and it’s good to be here."
